1,550 PointsStuck on Stage2, Question2 "Building a simple website"
Hi Classmate, my name is Orlando and this is my first twenty-four hour in class. I am excited and impress with Treehouse, the instructor is very knowledgeable and the tools are top of the line. That said, I am stuck and need a little help on stage2, question2 "Building a simple website" I am unable to get it right. Can someone explain this a little more. By the way Nick is an excellent Instructor, but i am a slow learner. The question is as follow: " We've placed an image named 'Cupcake.jpeg' in a directory named 'img' - Add the image to the body of the document. This is one of many answers i tried, but to no avail, i keep getting it wrong. <img src img/logo.gif alt=Smells Like Bakin>
Thanks Orlando Hernandez 01/19/14

You use an image tag to place an image: <img>. To tell it what image you want to display and where it can find that image, you use the "src" attribute. It should look like:
<body>
<img src="img/Cupcake.jpeg">
</body>

1,550 PointsHi Roger Thanks a mill.- i mean thanks for the explanation of the concept. I am started to understand the concept better. Even-though, like Liv Stevens, i also copy/pasted your info. and gotten the same result, but what i got out of this is a better understanding of the concept, because you are saying the same thing as Nick, but from a different angle. So again, big thanks Roger for your help. My response to you Liv Stevens, because it seems that you and i is at the same place and we are not going to understand everything and every concept right away - But as we continue in this class every thing will starts to fall in place.

324 PointsHi Orlando, I'm a newbie myself and got stuck in the same question as you did last week. I got really tired of getting the wrong answer, so I took a break for a day. I came back and watched the video again and made sure my code was correct. <img src= "img/cupcake.jpeg">. Turns out I was missing the last ( " ) to close out the name of the image.
Hope you get it correct and are able to move on to the next stage.
